My Repentant Brothers (Madeline Larson)

Madeline still remembered what Eugene had told her.

A feeling of caution arose within her, and she asked, "Are you and Harriet part of the same organization?". Karen leaned against the doorframe and said, "Yeah, she mok you in on her own, and is reallyanade me mad"

Karen raised her hand and pointed at Madeline, saying, "You don't have to worry about your face anymore. When the doctor first arrived, condition slidn't look too good. For the past few days, there's been someone taking care of you every night, which is why you've recovered so well Don't forget to thank the person who took care of you"

"Was it you?" Madeline frowned and asked.

Madeline had come to terms with being saved by Harriet, but when she saw Karen, she realized that it might not be that simple

Glancing at the IV drip, Madeline said, "I want to go back"

Karen walked over and gently pressed Madelme's shoulder, concern in her eyes, and she said, "Wait a minute. You're still not fully recovered. Going out in this wind could make you worse. Your weak immune system can't deal with stress right now. Do you really want this allergic reaction tu spread to your throat! Want me to call an ambulance for you?

Karen picked up the ointment next to her and continued. Tve been looking after you these days, and if you decide to turn again

Speaking, Karen expertly applied the intent to the red spots on Madeline's skin.

Karen even bent down and gently blew on the spots, bring almost excessively render. She asked, "Is it uncomfortable The doctor said it would take you a month to fully recover, so it's best not to open the windows, and sun exposure isn't good for you either Madeline lowered her gaze, watching as Karen carefully applied the ointment. It seemed that Karen wasn't acting at all:

However, Madeline wasn't naive.

was consistently suspicious, leaving

Offering unsolicited kindness often suggested hidden motives or questionable intentions. Karen's behavior was c Madeline to wonder what she was up to this time.

Madeline thought. Last time, Karen's aim was to observe and mimic me. Could it be that this time she's trying to keep me calm just to replace me!

After all,

1. II. Madelme had once faced Winslet's tricks, and she knew that deceitful people like Winslet would stop at nothing to get what they wanted. "Madeline, you're so beautiful Karen, with her tender hand, lifted a strand of Madeline's hair and tucked it gently behind her ear.

A mild smell of alcohol, mixed with a hint of an indistinct floral scent, drifted from Karen, almost intoxicating in its subdery

The intimate gesture made Madeline instinctively pull away.

Her abrupt movement made the IV boule jiggle, causing Madeline's blood to backflow into the catheter.

Karen frowned and gently held Madeline's hand, pressing a towel on it. Karen said, "Why are you being so rebellions? Hurting yourself like this makes me worry, you know"

While Karen's caring tone was gentle and coaxing. Madeline had become allarmed.

Madeline responded coldly. "Have you worn your mask so long that you can't even tell who you really are! I can't deny your acting skills are excellent, but don't treat me like I'm an idior. M. Green, I'm not that close to you. I don't care what your intentions were with me before. I just wan you to stay away. I have no worth to you."

"Whether you have worth or not isn't for you to decide, Karen said, pulling out a packet of dried plums and offering them to Madeline. Karen added. "Try some. They were your favorite when you were a kid. I bet you haven't had them in ages and have forgotten their taste by now?

Madeline looked away and said. I'm allergic to dried plums."

"Brally? Are you sure you're allergo-to dried plums? Karen had a faint sale and squinted her eyes, saying. "I know you better than you think. What you know, 1 most likely know too, and whatever you don't know, I still do. Besides, I know what matters most to you* Kazen twarded a strand of Madeline's hair and her finger and sail, "Laila, you've really forgotten a lot

Madelio had never been called ths before, not as far back as she could remember.

Sering Madeline confused look, Katen chuckled, gently patted Madeline's snooth hand, and left without a word

After a little while. Harriet came back,

She carried a steaming bowl of catmeal and placed it on Madeline's nightstand. She noticed that the ointment had been used and looked a hat confused

Did you put on the ointment yourself?" asked Harner.

Madeline replied, was Karen"

was taken aback. Before Madeline woke up, Karen had been quite indifferent to her, not even checking on her once.

When two women competed for one man, it never ended well

Worse still. Karen was a cunning and worldly woman..

Hamer reflected on the way Ryan and the Phantom Organization's members had rated Karen. She gently pointed out, "Karen is quite articulate, It's often difficult to grasp her exact meaning. She spent an extended period in a nursing home as a high-risk patient. Are you aware of the reason behind her being there?? Madeline shook her head. Although she had heard about Karen before, she didn't know many details.

Eugene and the others seemed to be keeping something hidden. Moreover,

the

most important thing was that they were always very reserved about anything unpleasant, almost as if they wanted Madeline to just relax and enjoy a carefree life under their protection.

Their love for Madeline had enclosed her within a safe world.

Madeline only knew that she had met Eugene and the others at an orphanage, became involved with the Phantom Organization, and lost all her martial skills due to an accident. Following this, she disappeared from the public eye, lived with a typical rural family, and completely cut off all connections to her previous life.

Madeline asked. "Can she hypnotize people! So, was she planning to use me as a test subject to hypnotize me?" Madeline felt a surge of anxiety, She had always been Maddie and Madeline. She thought, "When was I ever called Laila! It was just so ridiculous

Harriet said seriously. "She's really quite terrible. She had almost fallen into Karen's trap once, but was saved by someone. Yet, Karen didn't think there was anything frightening about her actions.

Karen just considered it fun and amusing just like what Ryan had done.

Harriet asked. "I told you everything, so you'd better remember my favor. If your backers have it in for me, could you cut me some slack!" Madeline was confused and said, "Okay

The initial indicated in noble true name. Ryan
